Olympic Challenge Take Two (Part Two)

ruthiejane

Gemmzie I'd really like us to do the challenge again. I can't find the other one that you mention, and does it really matter if there are two similar ones?

Gemmzie

I guess not but won't it get confusing?

Is the other one you were on about the sealed pot challenge? If so i think we could still run another olympic challenge alongside that with no problems

The sealed pot is different - is collecting change in a jar isn't it? Most of my money for the challenge was electronic - transfers, paypal and stuff, and very rarely cash so I think the Olympic challenge is very different really.

Thats what I was thinking. But it was the only challenge i could see so far planned for next year and was wondering if it was the one that gemmzie had mentioned.

I always run a sealed pot alongside my olympic challenge and there is only ever around £10 in there (well both challenges we have done so far) dnt think I would do too well in that one :rotfl: especially as I rarely have cash as I use my cashback credit card for pretty much all purchases!

Hoping for another olympic challenge, dont mind doing the totals if nobody else wants to

No no, it wasn't the sealed pot challenge - that's a great idea.

It was pretty much exactly what we do. I mean I'm up for it if you guys are, just felt I'd been a bit hijacked

found the £2008 for 2008 club, but think thats for the compers trying to earn the equivilent of £2008 worth of prizes. When I first read the thread I thought it was taking over ours but then I realised it was the replacement of win back your internet costs in prizes. It wasnt until I noticed it was in the competitions time forum/area (whatever its officially called) I realised

Um, I don't know at the moment to be honest, someone else has started a really similar challenge with our totals of gold, silver etc. So I was planning to but now I'm not sure.

I noticed the other challenge and I was going to post on there about this one but I thought I had better not. This is the original one and I am sticking by it

Gemmzie

Hang on, will see if I can find it

my thoughts exactly! definately will stick by our challenge as we all began back in the beginning of the year! no offence to the person who wanted to start the new one I must have missed that one!
